Moose responses to anthropogenic disturbance across a range of spatial scales: Diet, habitat use, and movement
Habitat loss and climate change are two of the leading causes of the global decline of biodiversity. Declines in the abundance of moose (Alces americanus) in British Columbia, Canada, in the 2000s were hypothesized to result from an interaction…
